To be observed for open drive compressors

Select motor and frequency inverter in agreement with the manufacturers.

Risk of motor damage due to insufficient cooling!

Risk of motor damage due to insufficient cooling!

Ensure that the motor is sufficiently cooled at every speed! Observe the application limits provided by the motor manufacturer.

Motor protection

Besides a typical line protection switch, the use of thermistor thermal motor winding protection is additionally recommended to ensure that the motor is only operated at permissible temperatures.

Shaft coupling and seal

Select the coupling carefully (see Bitzer Software). For low speed / frequency operation, a shaft coupling with sufficient inertia must be selected (see also Technical Information KT-160).
